Why is this guy doing do well?

[Greenstyle]

Hi I'm level 3 and I've made the champions league final. I'm playing against a team with average quality of 19.6 and team value of 10 million. He's winning every week! And beat a 24.7 average side over both legs in the semi. The teams below him in his league average about 23/22 ( few around 18 ) and he's unbeaten and scored 119 goals.

My average is 27.3 so should be much better than him. I know formation and attics mean a lot but even with such a gulf in quality? He plays 442 diamond I play it reg.

Don't mind losing but will seem unfair if I lose to him.
